Seamstress For the Band is a funny sort of blog. We decided to combine little pieces of prose (by us) with a song (not by us.) We don't write about music. We write along side it.

We do our best to keep a good blend: something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and then we offer it to you like a proposal, a bouquet of lemon jonquils, a tiny gold band, a partnership between words and music.
All MP3s are offered as samples for a period of 1-2 weeks. Please support artists by purchasing albums legally.
To download:
PC users: RIGHT + CLICK on the song title and "Save Target As" to the folder you would like to save the mp3.MAC users: ALT/OPTION + CLICK and "Save Target As" to the folder you would like to save the mp3.
If you are the copyright owner of a sound file we've posted and would like for us to remove it, please let us know and we will be happy to comply.
